How can community-informed metadata guidance become practical repository improvements? In this guest post, LMU Munich shares how the PID Network Germany pilot supports better DOI metadata workflows through the DataCite Metadata Generator - a reusable tool for metadata creation and validation with integrated PID support: https://doi.org/10.5438/acdm-0120

Recordings and slides from the RAiD Global Community Meetings (20 May 2026) are now available.
The RAiD Operating Alliance was announced publicly for the first time — a global governance body of ARDC, SURF, SDSC, and the Digital Research Alliance of Canada.
Other highlights: SURF's Netherlands service launching Q3 2026, 605 RAiDs minted in Australia/NZ, and growing US and Canadian pilots.
Open funding metadata is the backbone of transparent research. In our response to the Barcelona Declaration Call to Action, we show how DataCite is advancing award DOIs, funder PIDs & metadata enrichment to connect funding with research impact: https://doi.org/10.5438/9dw2-8g96
